Select hardware based on your specific installation needs.
Note:
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the installation and cable routing complies with local safety codes.
1. Determine location for the mount, and where to route cables.
Mark location where you want to route cables through with a
pencil (on finished side of ceiling tile) if you need to cut a hole.
2. Remove affected ceiling tile and adjacent tiles required for access.
3. Install fasteners/anchors.
4. Install expander unit at determined location.
5. Use drywall saw to cut hole into finished side of ceiling tile at marked location.
Note the following:
• Carefully run connected cables so they do not block the cooling vents or put strain on the connectors.
• Anchors and screws used to mount the expander are not provided and must be selected by installer for the type of
ceiling material supporting the expander. Take care while drilling and installing anchors so ceiling material does not
tear out and weaken attachment.
